Food security policies often overlook the potential of trees to provide micronutrient-rich foods. Here, through causal mediation analysis, we show the positive effect of tree cover on micronutrient adequacy, explained by people sourcing food from on-farm trees. Detailed survey data (n = 460 households with repeated surveys) from Malawi were linked to high-resolution (3 m) tree-cover data to capture forest and non-forest trees. Our findings support integrating nutrition and landscape restoration policies.

粮食安全政策常常忽视树木提供富含微量营养素的食物的潜力。在这里,通过因果中介分析,我们展示了树木覆盖率对微量营养素充足性的积极影响,这可以通过人们从农场树木中采购食物来解释。来自马拉维的详细调查数据( n = 460 个重复调查的家庭)与高分辨率 (3 m) 树木覆盖数据相关联,以捕获森林和非森林树木。我们的研究结果支持整合营养和景观恢复政策。
